No you've just created a bracket racer and made your CAR COUNT lower.

More than a couple of fast guys with traditional cars have been beaten heads up by the new cars, they haven't quit. The new cars are not a major reason for the car counts being low, regardless of what baseless theories are wandering about in your head.

Most of the guys who have to worry about the new cars run AA through C, and they're not the only ones staying home. they're not the reason we have not been out yet, either. I don't like them, but they will not be what keeps us from racing, if anything does.
